Konami Announces Target: Terror

Konami has announced a new classic game for Wii: Target: Terror. We'll get to protect the US from terrorist threats!

Konami announced that Target: Terror is currently in development for the Wii. The game is based on Target: Terror Gold, the top-grossing arcade game of 2006 and designed by arcade pioneer Eugene Jarvis, founder of Raw Thrills, the developer of Big Buck Hunter PRO.

Target: Terror is the first game from Konami that will be compatible with the Wii Zapper; players will be able to capture the old-school flavor of fast-paced light gun shooters from gaming's glory days of the arcades. Target: Terror puts players in the role of an elite counter-terrorist agent charged with protecting the US from an ever-increasing wave of terrorist threats.

With a full-scale assault spanning the entire nation, players can show these terrorist thugs who's boss, using an assortment of lethal weapons including machine guns, grenade launchers, freeze guns, flamethrowers and even an orbital laser beam from space. Target: Terror also features a unique Justice Mode, allowing players to dual-wield weapons for twice the mayhem.

Target: Terror also features an unlockable offering of fun and humorous mini-games inspired by a variety of arcade classics.

Developed by Leviathan Games, Target: Terror is expected to explode onto the Wii in Q1 of 2008. The first three screenshots of the game can be found on our gamepage for Target: Terror.

  That's exactly what I thought. It just looks awful. It's as if they have tried to make live feed animations for the enemies but have failed and made them look awful.
